Ride Details

The ride routes will be clearly marked with identifiable signage and a map will be provided to all participants when they register on the day. All roads for the four routes are sealed, however riders will need to be vigilant for road surface variations.

A SAG wagon will follow each of the rides and some mechanical support will be available along the route, however you are expected to be able to change and repair a puncture. It is also strongly recommended that you have your bike serviced before the event. If major repairs are carried out during the ride you will be expected to pay for the materials ie. new tubes, tyres, chains etc. Cyclists will need to comply with the Victoria Road Rules and ensure their bicycles are roadworthy and operative. The Kelly Country Classic is a ride event NOT a race.

It is expected that riders who enter the 210km and 150km rides will maintain a minimum average speed of 22km/ph. Riders who do not reach Glenrowan by 4:30pm will be requested to either enter the SAG Wagon or leave the ride at that point. Training for the event is necessary, especially the 150km and 210km rides.
